Are these legit or is it just the box for the photo and a pic of the micro

Ts,
I am sure we will be seeing a lot more once it is set for worldwide launch. I managed to get my hands on a prerelease version for a bit and I really liked it. There are quite a few differences that I think people will appreciate. For one it is a little bit thinner (about 2mm by the specs), also it has a decidedly more metal feel to the player (it feels very solid and a bit heavier). The battery cover on the player I saw had the Zen Logo actually embossed on the cover (you can feel the ripples, not just see them). The controls had a very different feel to them, kind of like a suede feel (at least as much as plastic can feel like suede) and the screen is very nice. OLED definitely makes for a very good display, bright and colorful. Oh and the on/off switch was done in chrome with a blue led underneath.
I was pretty happy with what I saw, and I think it is good improvement over the original Zen Micro.

Zen V Plus volume is lower compared to Zen Micro/Phot

Hey, well I just exchanged my Zen Micro Photo for a Zen V Plus today because they were out of stock with Micro's. Anyway, I've tried putting the Zen V Plus to full volume and it doesn't even seem loud at all (which is bad). The volume restricter is off and so is the smart volume which both make it less louder if they're on. The Zen V Plus at volume level 25 sounds like Zen Micro Photo volume level 22/23. Has anyone else converted from Zen Micro Photo to Zen V Plus, or vice versa? I just want to know if it's just me noticing the difference, but I highly doubt it is.

With the very strong possibilty of permanent hearing loss and the risk of Class Action lawsuits from consumers that have lost their hearing, it's going to be harder and harder to find a company that releases really loud players.
I've got tinnitus and it never stops- I can hear the buzzing/ringing all the time, no matter what I'm doing. I've lost a lot of hearing response in the vocal ranges and it makes it nearly impossible to understand some people's voices.

Is creative selling Zen Micro's anymore? They aren't on the website for sa

Creative still has the Zen Micro for sale. You just have to click the 'See all players' tab.

Does Zen Micro Explorer esit for Micro Pho

i really don't like the software thatcame with my Micro Photo. Will the explorer software work with the Micro Photo?

I was able to answer my own question, and confirmed what one other person in this forum had found out: the charger for the Zen Micro does in fact work for the Zen V Plus. Creative acknowledges this as well--in the current ads on their website, they are selling Zen Micro chargers for $9.99, and a footnote says that they work with the Zen V Plus, Zen MicroPhoto, and Zen Neeon.

Creative Zen Micro St

Hello. I am going to get a Creative Zen Micro off of the offical www.Creative.com website. I was just wondering, are Zen Micros discontiued? The reason I ask this is because my mom said I can't buy a Creative Zen Micro until December comes around. I was just wondering if they will still be selling Zen Micros then.

Yes, I believe the Zen Micros will still be in stock in December. I don't know that the ZMP is selling as well as Creative had hoped for. It's got a lot of beginner problems. There's a good chance you'll still be able to get a ZM from Creative's website...not sure about retail though, they might be in short supply in stores because of the season. Creative's website is probably your best bet to ensure that you get the color you want.

My zen micro is messed up.....can someone he

my zen micro just started being slow all of a sudden, it takes forever to start up, sometimes it takes forever to change songs, it takes forever to do anything, my computer won't let me get new firmware, and my computer recognizes my micro very rarely. can someone help me? please?

Hmmm December 2005. Hm, I guess it's not the battery then. Unless you leave it in places with hot temperatures often. But I doubt that. So it's definetely not the battery. Perhaps the number of songs? I only have about 450 so I wouln't be able to tell (although I have ZVM but used to have Zen micro). But I think if it is becoming a really bad problem for you, then you could ask the Creative costumer support. I'm out of ideas as to what it could be, although I wouldn't rule out the song amount possibility.
I'll try to go and dig out some info so check back to see if I found something. Good luck!!

Zen Micro - Does Creative care about making their product work or can someone help

My patience for Creative has just about run out. I am hoping someone can help me because obviously Creative cannot. I bought this Zen Micro in 2005. From the very first day I had problems. I bought it for use with Napster (which I have never had any problems with).
Back then, I had free telephone support, which I no longer have. I guess Creative realized how long they'd be on the phone with everyone since their products need constant technical support. Anyway, they told me that their software was only BETA for Napster. I never would have purchased it if I had known this. My original problems were that if I shut off the player, I would lose everything I had transferred to it. I believe that updates since then have fixed it. I also learned how to avoid this - I locked the device and let it go into idle shutdown. This would allow the device to start up normally next time.
My problems now are as follows. It STILL (two years later) is freezing if I try to transfer more than 5 or 6 tracks. Freezes with no way to fix it unless you unplug it while it's docked. I had to pull out the battery to get it to restart. Now it's lost all my playlists (although the songs are still there) and if I play a song, all the information is gone. You can hear the song but the screen just says something about going to play mode to play a song - while the song is playing. Also, my computer is now not recognizing that the player is connected so I can't get it to connect to Napster to even try to re-start my transfers. I've rebooted the computer and the player. Now I have no idea what to do. I tried to update the driver from Creative but if the computer isn't noticing it's connected, now can I get it to update?
I will never, ever buy a Creative again. But for now, can anyone help me?

I did not post "rulezbecca" just replied to it. I have the same problem though.
I posted this to get the attention of, maybe, a Creative tech who might be reading some of the posts.
I have upgraded most of the computer software, firmware, hardware, and other periferals at some time or another with out this much trouble.
The main problem is that after part of the firmware has been loaded the micro hangs and the computer wants me to install a driver so it can communicate with the micro via the USB port, that same port it was using just prior to do the firmware download. Now the micro can not connect via the USB port in this computer or any other computer I try.
How can I get this situation resolved? I have read other posts and tried the suggested actions but none worked with my first micro and I don't want to put this one in the same locked out state.

ZEN MICRO FIRMWARE DOWNLOAD PROBLEM! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!

I've had my 6gb micro for a little over 2 wks..and i wanted to download the free 30 day Napster to go offer that came with my package..and one of the steps before downloading Napster was updating Zen Micro's firmware..well i tried and it downloaded and after it asked me to select my language, i got a message saying: "your player's not connected, please connect your player" and my mp3 was hooked up through the USB..so i tried reconnecting and it still said the same...so at this time i skipped over updating this firmware and downloaded my subscription to Napster anyway...everything was working fine..i was downloading songs in Napster and syncing them with windows media player 0 which i already had on my comp...but about 5 days ago, my syncs began to start failing often...and I'm sure that i need these firmware updates for my mp3 to transfer files successfully but the problem is that my mp3 is not being recognized every time i try to install these firmware updates.... I'm quite stumped at this point.....DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY HELP THEY CAN OFFER ME.. ID GREATLY APPRECIATE IT by the way the firmware version that came with my player and is currently on it is 2.20.05

The firmware version you have is fine for Napster tracks, so you don't need to update. If your transfers are failing, there's something else going on.

New Zen Micro will NOT connect!

Hello all,
I just bought a Creative Zen Micro player. I installed the software, charged the battery to full and guess what.....the Creative software does not recognize my player as being connected. And yes, I've checked device manager to see if it appears. It does, with the correct name and everything. So what is the problem? I've read other messages on this forum about this problem but it usually seems to be a problem after installing a new version of firmware. But this hasn't been done in my case because I haven't been able to get the stupid thing connected in the first place.
I'm confused as to what to do next. I've tried resetting it by removing the battery and then holding the power button but this hasn't worked either. I first was using a usb hub to connect but after reading that you should avoid this, I tried plugging directly into a usb port on my machine. That also didn't make a difference. I've unistalled the player from the device manager about 5 times and reinstalled it. I've tried reinstalling the creative software/drivers about 5 times and no resolution. I've followed instructions from the Creative website step by step as the proper way to install the software but nothing works. I'm extremely disappointed to bring home a product that does not work out of the box. Oh, and yes I have Windows XP Pro so the OS isn't the issue here. I guess I will just return this useless product unless someone else has another idea that I could try. I'm really at my wits end.
Thanks for listening to this short novel,
Drawn-a-Blank

The software that will not recognize the player is the Zen Media Explorer and Media Source. I'm not sure what firmware I have and I can't check since I'm not at home. But, I can't install new firmware even if I wanted too since it won't connect. However, I have downloaded the lastest drivers but I don't think I've installed the lasted version of Zen Media Explorer, so I guess that is one other option.

How to transfer all music in my Zen Micro to either my PC or another mp3 player....help ple

i have a creative micro zen with about 000 handpicked and some very hard to find songs on it...i don't really have trouble with the player itself, just the software and the continous problems seems like everyone is having with something... my question is this..........if i wanted to get another mp3 player as a backup in case this one crashes, then what does everyone think about one of the smaller ipods? what about their software and such? and, if i do decide to get an ipod, then how would i transfer all these 000 mp3 songs onto the new ipod? would there be an issue with the fact that they are not bought from itunes?? would it not be safe to do that? and if it is okay to do that,? how would i transfer the songs back onto my PC, as i have tried everything suggested on this board recently in trying to do that using Mediasource and it just won't work even after downloading all new plugins etc. if someone has an idea about this, please let me know step by step if possible about how i can get these songs that are valuable to me from my zen micro, to my computer, and then onto another mp3 and if ipod (nano for instance) is a wise choice or if there is another player in the same category that others have found they have waaaay less problems with and better support/service with it's?any help anyone gives would be greatly appreciated!? i appreciate all the suggestions to my other questions as well!?thanks,barb

for a new mp3 player, i would get this one, its awesome (and the one i would get if i had a choice instead of my microphoto that broke)... here's a link
http://reviews.cnet.com/Samsung_YP_T9_4GB_black/4505-6499_7-3208083.html the 4gb one is $80, the 2gb one is $30... so thats cheaper than an ipod, and much better features and stuff

When you order your Zen Micro, make sure you know what you're getti

I recently about a 5gb Zen Micro Mp3 player and went through a lot of trouble to get it, but I learned a lot. Read on:
First, there are two types of packaging for Zen Micros, one that includes only the player, the cords, the manual, the software, a pouch and the battery, and another that also has a case with stand and belt clip attachments. Most of the retailers are selling both for the same price and many of them have them both in stock at the same time. The boxes are two different sizes and the larger one (almost 0'by 7') has the case and attachments. Get your money's worth and ask what's the box.
Second, NEVER NEVER NEVER buy from a company in British Columbia, Canada called Can Computer (www.cancomputer.com). It is BY FAR the WORST retailer I've EVER come into contact with!
I ordered from this company after doing a little bit of research and they seemed like a decent company. I was WRONG. I ordered my player. A day later they called me to tell me that the colour I wanted was sold out but hadn't been posted on the website, so I picked a new colour. The company only ships by reg mail so after a week of waiting, I got my mp3 player in the mail.
Now, when you buy the player from a decent retailer, as I did afterwards from The Source by Circuit City, the box is rapped in plastic and the inside box is taped. Everything in the box is packaged and sealed including the battery and the software. Everything is neatly placed in the box and the player is untouched and is protected by plastic stri
ps.
The battery is outside the player. This is the way they should all be according to Creative Labs and all the other retailers I've spoken to.
When I received my supposedly "new" player from Can Computer, there was no outside plastic, the seal on the inside of the box was broken. The outside AND inside was covered in dirt. The inside contents looked like they had been dumped out onto a dirty floor and thrown back in again. Everything was opened, including the software. The battery was already inside the player and it was covered in dirt. When I took it out of the player, there was a piece of tape (the kind of scotch tape you get on a roll) holding the top of the battery together and the casing was warped. My manual was mangled. On top of that, there were parts missing from my box. I received the box that should have included the casing and the attachments. Neither were there. Also missing were my warranty cards and the casing to the manual. The cords that I receieved were not creative merchandise. As you can imagine, I wasn't very happy.
When I called the company, the Sales Manager was incredibly rude to me. He refused to apologise and seemed to make every effort to deter me from getting refund. He tried to tell me that it was normal for the player to arri've that way and that tape on the battery was something that was normal. He also said he would only refund my shipping costs to send it back to him if he saw it and believed that I was telling the truth. He was so rude that when I explained to him what happened, he had the nerve to say, "So, what do you want me to do about it's". To prove my point, I called the retailers around my city and asked them what the box, battery and player should look like. I also called Creative. All of them said that what I got from Can Computer was abnormal. It was only then, when I proved that they'd sent me used and defecti've products and demanded that I be given a full refund, that the Sales Manager of Can Computer agree with me.
This is the worst company I've ever dealt with. DO NOT buy ANYTHING from this company!!!
Do your research and if you can buy one from a retailer in your area, do so. It's worth it. Futureshop will match any internet retailer's price, and The Source gives over the counter replacement.

Need help with Zen Micro and Win

Hi,
I bought a Zen Micro 2 days ago and I can't get it to work with my Win XP machine.
I did what was told in the manual: install the software first then plug the player.
When I plug the player in I get the following message:
Found New Hardware:
Zen Micro
According to the manual, it should be detected and the drivers installed automatically.
But it dosen't. Instead I get the Wizard that try to find the drivers and it dosen't find them.
I let the battery get a full charge and I tried again. Same results.
I tried to update the firmware but since the player is not detected that didn't work.
I also tried to get the new MediaSource/Zen driver (ZENM_PCAPP_LB_4_00_8_PDE.exe) but that didn't fix my problem either.
I also tried to install the Creative Zen Micro Driver version .27.02 but it tell me that I can't install it because the user I tried to install it with is not an administrator. But this is not true since there is only one user on this machine and it's the administrator. First software that tell me this.
I'm using XP Home with SP2.
Thanks for the help.

The reason it won't install is because the drivers aren't installed.
I've seen a very few others with this strange error about administrati've pri'veleges, so I'm wondering if it's a Windows issue here. You could try downloading the drivers from to see if this is any different.
Try creating another administrator account and see if it will install from that, and try searching back (perhaps someone had found a solution). I think there's also a way of running a program with forced pri'veleges, perhaps Google can turn something up on that.
I remember one user needs to change some rights of the registry in order to install the software. It looks like under some cases, the login account does not have sufficient rights to write registry.

FIX: Zen Micro Installer Error - "DemoShield Player has encountered an error.

I just thought I'd post a solution to a problem I was having with the Zen Micro Explorer software installation because it might help someone else. Also, this forum is well indexed by search engines so it will be easy for people to find. It took me well over an hour to track this down.
After starting the Zen Micro Explorer Installer CD, a full screen splash is shown of the creative logo and then DemoShield is started for the software install. It shows an intro screen where you must click 'Next,' on clicking next the DemoShield program was crashing with the generic Windows error "DemoShield encountered an error..." The problem appears to be a software conflict between DemoShield and Apple's QuickTime (any version as far as I know). Disabling the QuickTime startup entry does not help, installing in Safe Mode does not help and exiting any instance of QT in the system tray does not help either.
To fix the problem you must un-install the QuickTime software from your computer by going through the Add/Remove Programs screen in the Control Panel. Once un-installed, run the Creative installer CD again, this time it will run correctly. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the install.
<i>Please note that if you have installed iTunes on your system it will not run while QuickTime is uninstalled, this is normal. Re-installation of QuickTime is covered later in this post.</i>
When you have completed the install and restarted your computer you can re-install QuickTime. At the time of writing (4th Sept 2005) QuickTime and iTunes are bundled in one download package so you must download both. You can <a href='http://www.apple.com/QuickTime/download/' target=_blank>get the bundle here[/url]. Let it download and run the installer. If you already have iTunes installed, the installer will 'Repair' your installation, detecting that QT is missing it will re-install. If you do not have iTunes the installer will installer iTunes and QuickTime.
When you have completed the QuickTime+iTunes install you have got around the DemoShield issue. I hope this of use to anybody with a similar problem.Message Edited by PhilM on 09-5-2005 02:30 AM

Hi Jeremy,
I knew it was an issue with QuickTime because I clicked on 'Send Error Report' on the error message and it took me to <a href='http://oca.microsoft.com/en/response.aspx?SGD=0b73e24-7433-4ee-ac4c-49956d08c85c&SID=623' target=_blank>this page[/url]. It states "An analyst at Microsoft has investigated this problem and determined that an unknown error occurred in QuickTime Player. This software was created by Apple Computer, Inc.."
My QuickTime version is 7.0.2. My operating system is WIndows XP Home (Athlon 64; 52Mb RAM)
Eventually I just tried uninstalling QuickTime and it wroked after I did that. Some screenshots: <a href='http://www.phantomphil.co.uk/ZM/' target=_blank>Click[/url]
The contents of my disk.id file reads:
